je fais serment d'allegeance au drapeau des Etats-Unis d'Amerique, et a la Republique qu'il represente, une nation sous Dieu, indivisible, avec liberte et justice pour tous--that's how you say the pledge of allegiance in french. amazing how many interesting things i can learn in french class without getting any better at actually speaking the language. still, it's fun. we laugh much.

i would love to stay and chat, but i have to go finish reading five different books now. peace.
